The Irene Appreciation Thread - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Nighthawk76 · 02-17-2008, 12:39 AM

Even though I have known Irene as a fellow poster for a few years, it is only the last couple of days that I have gotten to know her as a person. Irene has been helping me deal with a personal problem over the last few days and has been a big help. I've always considered Irene a very kind hearted and carring member of the boards, now I consider her a friend. Thanks, Irene.

I totally agree with you, Mike. I think Irene is awesome. Not only do I see her as a great person, having never met her, but I think she posts very intelligent posts. I always enjoy reading what she has to say.

Irene seems really great I know she doesn't know me that well but she seems like a good person

Janice · 02-17-2008, 07:06 AM

I admire Irene for many reasons. She had a difficult first marriage and was a single mother for years until she met her honey. She didn't cry poverty. She got an education and a career. She doesn't have pity parties for herself. She's a doer, not a whiner. Irene and I have so much in common, that it's almost scary. United in grief over the loss of our parents and siblings. We both idolize our fathers. We're both chronic pain sufferers with spine problems.

The men in our lives are great, but both still works in progress, lol. We're both stepmothers, which is a joy, lol. We're both from the same disco era, so we lived the 70s, BABY! We're both over-the-top animal lovers, who miss our pets terribly. We're both drug dealers, out on parole The list goes on. Hey wait, back up. I'm KIDDING! We run our homes efficiently. Am I forgetting anything? Probably. Irene's a great listener. If I tell her that I have an important appointment for anything, be it medical, tenant problems, Irene actually asks me how it went. She's a very kind and compassioate person, and a wonderful friend to me.

LuLu Rogers · 02-17-2008, 10:38 AM

She knows how much I love her! She's helped me through many rough times and I feel honored and privledged to call her friend.

bandito · 02-17-2008, 04:38 PM

Although I don't really know her well, just reading her posts I can tell she's a very intelligent and caring person.

GARFIELDKOOL · 02-17-2008, 05:09 PM

I got to know Irene real well on the Good Times board. She listens, she understands, she a great friend.

AB · 02-17-2008, 05:24 PM

Cheers's to Irene!

Brian Damage · 02-17-2008, 05:50 PM

Irene is the best! A great friend and everybody else needs to stand in the back of the line because I'm first!

I liked Irene from her very first post (which I think I answered or something - I know we were one of the first to 'talk' to each other).

Irene rocks -- she's a straight shooter which I like, doesn't mind voicing her opinion and respects others' even if they might be the opposite of hers. She'll agree to disagree and move on without holding grudges. She sees the sense of irony and humour in everyday things and is a survivor (like Janice and myself with chronic pain while running households).

As a matter of fact, I think Irene has influenced me where she didn't even know. When I had to contact a lawyer recently, the front line gal is of Latin decent (Torres is her last name, but ignorant me isn't sure whether that's Puerto Rican, Mexican, Cuban, etc. or what). She's a paralegal and is exactly how I picture Irene to be. She's talks straight and is a blast - we've since become personal friends and I think of her as my "live" version of my good "cyber" girlfriend!
